Rattlesnake Prospect located in Pershing
County, Nevada about 40
miles northwest of Lovelock and about 120 miles northeast of Reno. The
property consists of 2 unpatented 20 acre lode claims (40 acres total)

Assays from
rock chips
outcrops and old
mining dumps have indicated values exceeding 0.50 oz per
ton gold with
anomalous arsenic, antimony and mercury, the latter three are gold
pathfinder elements, especially in Nevada. There are several rusty gold
bearing quartz veins in sediments on
the property ranging in width from one foot to 5 feet and strike length
unknown because the veins dip under soil cover but at least 400 feet of
length is visible on the surface. Water can be obtained from shallow
wells drilled below the property on a possible millsite.
